Ohio NCLB Implementation Status

Here is a snapshot of Ohio's implementation status in complying with the mandates of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB/ESEA) in the following areas: state accountability plans, percentage of teachers and paraprofessionals who have met the "highly qualified" definitions under NCLB as of 2005-06, and state standards and assessment plans.

You will also find links to two charts -– one that illustrates the gap between authorized and actual federal funding of Title I (under ESEA) and another that shows the percentage of schools in the state that did not make "Adequate Yearly Progress" and are in improvement/corrective action status.
